Scenarios
Here’s a list of scenarios by the game designers and/or submitted by fellow Modern Spearhead players:
Operation Burning Sands: Counterattack at Mu’amur, Iraq 1988
When the campaign in Afghanistan escalated into a major Soviet effort for domination of the Middle East, the United States was forced to intervene. In Operation: Black Gold the U.S. expeditionary force successfully halted a Soviet incursion into staunch U.S.-supporter Iraq. As part of a Corps-wide maneuver, 1st Cavalry Division has been ordered to counter-attack Soviet positions along the border. On the 9 April 1988 the 39th U.S. Armored Brigade is attacking positions in the Mu’amur valley held by a reinforced Motor Rfle Regiment from the 18th Guards Motor Rifle Division.

Krasnovian Invasion, USA 1999
Modern Spearhead demo scenario from PointCon 1999. It is a scenario based on an actual U.S. training battle fought at NTC.

The Krasnovian 15th Combined Arms Army is moving to capture the juncture of Interstates 15 and 40 at Barstow, California, thus cutting off the main route leading from Arizona into Los Angeles. This area is being defended by the U.S. 20th Corps.

Force size sees an Israeli Para Brigade attempting to thwart a breakthrough by a Reinforced Syrian Tank Brigade in an encounter style battle.
